Praying Hands Ranches

Praying Hands Ranches Inc. (PHR) is a Christian, non-denominational, charitable, nonprofit, 501 (c)(3) organization; a member of NARHA (North American Riding Handicapped Assoc.), committed to meeting the needs of mentally, emotionally, and physically challenged children and adults in a ranch environment therapeutic center. Using physical and occupational therapists, trained riding instructors and loving volunteers, we strive to achieve rehabilitation using equine, horticultural, and small animal therapies, as well as peer tutor programs. Our primary task is giving all students an opportunity to grow mentally, physically, and emotionally strong, gain self-esteem, become independent, learn to care for others, be courageous enough to overcome fears, and achieve a better quality of life overall. PHR serves over 100 handicapped clients each week at the ranch. PHR INC. owns 40 acres on which the indoor and outdoor facilities are located.
